in your seceret door code cog:
in the symbols you put
flex 1d=-1 local
you need it to be
flex id=-1 local
(might have just been a typo when you were posting it)
and
flex code1=a
flex code2=b
flex code3=c
i dont think flexs can equal letters.

down in the odoor section you didnt put the door move speed in.
---
movetoframe(roomdoor,1, ???MOVESPEED??? );
movetoframe(roomdoor,0, ???MOVESPEED??? );
---

also there doesnt need to be a ';' on that last 'end'.

those are some of the problems that i saw just looking it over.

not sure if it would matter but you could put returns after all the different parts of the activated message, like this for the command 1


//-commands for surface 1
if(id == 1)
{
pass1 = pass1 + 1;
if(pass1 > 9) pass1 = 0;
SetSurfaceCel(spass1, pass1);
return;
}

and something like that for each of the other ones. the if(pass1>9) is probably a better thing to use than if(pass1==10), probably doesnt matter but thats what i usually use.

down were it checks the code to see if its right could be put differently too.


//-find out if the combo is corect, if it is, then call opendoor
if((pass1 != locka) || (pass2 != lockb) || (pass3 != lockc)) return;
else call odoor;

but im not sure if that matter either.

all them flexs up in the symbols could be ints since your not dealing with any decimals.

all these changes are just different was i would do it, im not sure if they really matter but you could try them.

dont know what the problem is with you loo cog.

i could fix the cogs so they work for you if you want. im not very good at explaining how to do it, its easier for me just to fix them. or you could wait around some more to see if GBK or SM show up.
your choice.

ok somthing is wong with the cog.
i fixed the pass=3 insted of pass3 so the third cell woudld move,and the pass1=0 insted of pass3=0 and now.....
when i input the right conbonation, the door wont open!.
and i was wondering is there any way i could put a secret settign into the cog so i can open all doors its used on with my own combonation? a kind of back door code.

(and i will add this myself if you dont) but i would'ent mind if you coudl reset all the passcode data after the door opens. possebly on the walls aswell.
and it will probebly be simple, but i was kept up far to late by a party next door (note to self: must kill next door nabors), and then i was woken up far to early for school... so i am all-most dead on my feet i am so tired (guy shouts dead man walking, pjb trys to hit him but falls flat on his face and starts sleeping)

heres the cog i made from editing your cog pjb. it worked when i tested it. i made it so it clears the data code data when the door is opened too.

i didnt that back door code part in. the only way i can think of to do that would be to make it so you have to hit the buttons in the right order. if that sounds like a good idea i, you or someone else can try to make it work like that.

do you still need that loo cog, or have you gotten that to work already?

see if that works for you. as with all triggers just make sure that the flush_trig is different from any other triggers in any other cogs you are using.
i didnt test it out but it should work.
